Attitudes to AIDS Now
. I) {0 ?' g) A  Z( {9 I" C　　Most people say that the USA is making progress in fighting AIDS, but they don't know there's no cure and strongly disagree that “the AIDS epidemic is over,” a new survey finds.
　　The findings, released Thursday by the Kaiser Family Foundation, reassure activists who have worried that public concern about AIDS might disappear in light of recent news about advances in treatment and declines in deaths.
　　“While people are very optimistic about the advances, they’re still realistic about the fact that there is no cure” , says Sophia Chang, director of HIV programs at the foundation.
　　The Kaiser survey, like a recent USA TODAY Gallup Poll, does find that the number of people ranking AIDS as the country's top health problem has fallen. In the Kaiser poll, 38% say it's the top concern, down from 44% in a 1996 poll, in the Gallup poll, 29% say AIDS is No. 1, down from 41% in 1992 and 67% in 1987.
